My freshly turned 3-year-old son is in love with digging for fossils. We started digging in the gravel in our drive-way as soon as he could walk. I wouldn’t think that he would recall digging for fossils but I guess we did it often enough that he remembers. He loves it!
We found this amazing fossil because after our walk today he wanted to dig. So we did. We’re very lucky to have driveway gravel with interesting little fossils but this is the 2nd larger fossil we found together.
Since we’re still in quarantine we haven’t been able to actually go to any fossil sites or the beach to look for seashells. Our driveway is keeping us sane! We can still search for fossils and stay home. It’s a win-win!
